  1. Wait 'til @magley64 gets here...then it'll be a shitstorm. Have we actually summoned anyone yet with tagging?
  2. How is it a shitstorm? If it offends anyone, maybe they are the lazy, teet sucking, freeloader described. Bernie should make them happy.
  3. Relax...it's a simplistic look at how the tax system is applied.
  4. Yeah, stay off my lawn! Interesting article... http://finance.yahoo.com/news/dear-bernie-sanders-sorry-m-172647639.html
  5. I can't claim to be financially schooled enough to come up with a tax plan...my wife OTOH, certainly could. Never fear Bernie has a plan!
  6. Making good decisions and sacrifices early in life to position oneself to making a good living is not the popular thing to do these days. Heroin sure isn't helping.
  7. A lot of bars have an inward bend that turns your wrists and exacerbates pressure points
  8. Only if I can get an Obama phone too!
  9. Not - because I'm legally not eligible so I couldn't if I wanted to..
  10. There's certainly something to be said for smart planning. Sometimes it doesn't pay to work harder For the record, I'm not saying the system is right or wrong, it is what it is. I just think that the people who play little or no taxes and yell to heap it on the rich have no clue how much they are paying and what happens if they get their wish.
  11. Yeah, we all knew it would snowball. It's a shame, I've been moving away from paper and physical wallet/cards and towards e-everything on my phone. Now, I'm re-thinking that because eventually they are going to build a back door and there's gonna be hacking of epic proportions. I worry less about my privacy on the phone than I do all of my financial data.
  12. They may or may not use it, but it's still available to them and that's the point.
  13. Look it up - 39.6%...and if you're a small business owner, it gets worse. You still haven't said why the video isn't an accurate representation (outside of it being normalized by using triplets, same house, job etc for illustration purposes). BTW, I don't make $500k a year, it was just an example.
  14. It's growing... http://www.macrumors.com/2016/02/23/doj-vs-apple-12-court-orders/
  15. How so? If I make $500k annually and am taxed at 40% and you make $40k annually and are taxed at 20% rate, what benefit am I getting from the extra taxes I paid above and beyond what you get? In fact, if you are below the poverty line, not only do you likely not pay taxes but are government subsidized in some way (food stamps, etc) so in effect, the person paying nothing gets more benefits.
  16. Yeah, the Chiro did an xray...he basically said my hit sits forward, putting strain on the back of the neck (could be the result of a previous car accident, years ago). Thanks for the heads up about the test...it doesn't even sound good.
  17. I wonder if you can also see who gave you negative rep...
  18. I have one more appt with the Chiro...if it persists after that I'll look at other options. It's about 95% better most days. Some days it flares up a little worse. I did speak with my GP about it...she told me to rest and ice it but I haven't spoken to her about it since. I see her next month.
  19. I'm having a similar issue with my neck. If I tilt it back and to the right, i get a nerve pinch. At one time, when I would do that, it would be like a shock going down my arm and my arm would go numb/tingle. I've been going to a chiropractor which has helped (I think, or it's worked itself out over time) and it's mostly gone but not completely. It was really bothering me on the trip down to the Gap last fall and that's when it was at its worst. Tonik might remember me bitching about my neck on the ride home. Sitting at a desk all day doesn't help.
  20. So it's a feature not a bug I guess I don't get rep often enough to have noticed. I'm gonna have to step up my game
  21. Is rep broken? I got a notification that "someone" gave me rep but it doesn't say who that someone is...unless you can rep anonymously which would be weird. Up until now, it's always given the user handing it out.
  22. Yep, that pretty much sums it up.
  23. It's not their fault...they're depraved because they're deprived
  24. My calendar looks free...pencil me in!
